Viking

Whilst designated as an Upper Premium brand, Viking has all the hallmarks of a Luxury Ocean Cruise Line. From the tastefully appointed, modern, beautifully designed, Scandinavian ships to the luxurious all-inclusive amenities, Viking are recognised as a Luxury Brand within the industry.

Formerly known as Viking Cruises, the brand was launched in 1997 by Torstein Hagen in St. Petersburg, Russia and went from strength to strength. The Viking Ocean Cruises division was formed in 2013, and now has a fleet of six ocean cruise ships.

In 2020 the company rebranded as Viking and established itself as a luxury cruise line with the emphasis on destination-oriented enrichment and experiences. There are a further nine ocean cruise ships on the books and Viking has also announced the development of two Expedition ships debuting in early 2022.

Viking also run a fleet of River Cruise Ships across Europe, Russia, China, Southeast Asia and Egypt, and from 2022 also within the United States.
